[firebird-support] Re: tempdirectories

is there a good and up to date official source of documentation on firebird.conf and other admin? I can't find anything in the https://www.firebirdsql.org/en/reference-manuals/ https://www.firebirdsql.org/en/reference-manuals/ that is as good as the older release notes, nor the janus software

[firebird-support] Re: tempdirectories

I've just tried TempDirectories = /location1 5000 ;/location2 ; /location3 And location1 is ignored, but 2 and 3 used!

[firebird-support] tempdirectories

Hi All, Setting the optional size argument on "TempDirectories" in firebird.conf doesn't seem to work. We've played with setting different locations and can demonstrate it works: TempDirectories = /location1; /location2; /location3 But specifying sizes seems to get the whole line

[firebird-support] tcpsvd listening on different IP addresses controlling security2.fdb location

Hi All, Sorry for the repost, but it's been a year We have tcpsvd binding fb_inet_server processes to different port/address/root combinations but sharing a tmpfs lock folder and security2.fdb on the same server. Reading and writing to security2.fdb seems to be about the only

[firebird-support] Individual security2.fdb per tcpsvd

Hi FB We have quite a special fb setup for a number of customers sharing a server but trying to separate out the resources and allow individual fail over. On day 0 we intended to use containers and VMs but came to the conclusion that they were themselves more resource heavy and complicated

Thank you everyone, as always you are the best group on the planet! I'll let you know how I get on... Ta Ian

Re: [firebird-support] DRBD

So, did you make experiments with sudden reboot of one of the nodes with simultaneous high load (inserting or updating a lot of records)? Hi Alexey, That's pretty much the only test that we've tried in several different ways. The problem is that Firebird is just too reliable, so I don't

[firebird-support] nbackup and lost indexes

Hi All, We use nbackup to pull live copies of customer's production databases back to our office to play with and help with support. We run a level0 backup every weekend, and a level1 every day which are both copied back to the office over night. That just leaves us to run a level2 when we
